FRIDAY FINDS

I have more garden cleanup (both my own and at a master gardener project) on the schedule for this weekend, a date with some nasty garlic mustard weed that, I kid you not, grew 5 inches in one night when we got a lot of rain and one more sowing of tomatoes to try to salvage my seed plans scheduled for this weekend. But that’s still a day away, so in the meantime, here’s some of what I’m digging this Friday.

I have thing about knobs and pulls, so I’m pinning this list of 48 budget-friendly options.

Over at Growing with Plants, Matt is giving awhile a neat, fully compostable compost bucket.

Eric from GardenFork invited me on his radio podcast to talk about Garden Myths. I may or may not have expressed some too-real feelings about what I am convinced is an Espom salts lobby taking over Pinterest. Give it a listen.

It seems like every year at about this time I go on a hunt for a new planter and I drive myself batty. I still haven’t found just what I’m looking for but I will say that I feel like there are better options out there than I’ve found in the past. I pinned a bunch to my Containers Pinterest board. If any
A few fortunate garden writers got to go to California spring trials last week, which is sort of Fashion Week for plants. Here’s a report from Stephanie at Garden Therapy.

Don’t forget that it’s Earth Day, so hug a tree today!

What’s on your agenda for the weekend?
